select all that apply
metaphysis
epiphysis
marrow cavity
articular cartilage
Ossification centers form in the metaphysis and epiphysis during bone development. The metaphysis is the part of the long - bone between the epiphysis and diaphysis, and the epiphysis is the end part of a long - bone. The marrow cavity is where bone marrow is located and not a site of ossification centers formation. Articular cartilage covers the ends of bones in joints and is not an ossification center location.
